what are you running 87 octane?
most ls1's take 125-150 shot with no issues...
detonating with only a 100 shot sais you got issues... either fuel, spark,or timing... i would get that looked at first

incorrect!!! my car never picked up any different on the 150 than a 100 shot. The car even ran a little RICH on the 150 shot and to date the best pass I have made on the 150 was a 11.66 @ like 116 but the 100 made some 11.4 passes @ 116 also..... but on average the 150 shot made 1-2 mph more but all of the times the traction was around the same..... being the 11.4 a dead hook and MANY 11.6's on a 100 shot spinning a little.... and the same 60's as the 150 on those.....
But anyway...... you shouldn't have any trouble outrunning him IF you don't let him get out in front of you on the line and you are a good solid shifter.

i vote for the cobra against camaroguy (unless he unloads the spray to 100+ shot)
i vote for jmeister with his mods against a cobra with his mods (heads/cam are huge in that factor)

should be a very good race, it all comes down to the driver. And though I understand '03 cobra's run strong, a bottle fed and h/c ls1 are a hellofa force to be reckoned with. all said and done though, my vote goes to the f-bods, for both .

TIGER 69, yes, out here in Cali we can only get 91 octane. It sucks too, because the further West you go, the higher the price gets, and the lower the quality of the gas goes. For crappy 91 octane, it takes me almost $40 bones to fill my '00 Z28. (more like $35-37, but still) The Carolina's were nice though. 93 octane for $1.20 a gallon. .... Ahhhh the days.

93 is about $210 to $215 here which seems to be lower than a lot of places. I guess I can expect high prices like that in a few years. Going to move out there when I finish medical school. Of course it shouldnt matter then. But right now im trying to scrap by.

My mods are...
SLP 345HP NBM 02 SS M6 | SLP Dual / Duals | SLP lid | Fram Filter | FTRA | ASP UnderDrive Pulley | Nitto 555R Dr | NOS 5177 Dry kit w/ 85 shot
SLP 345HP NBM 02 SS M6 | SLP Dual / Duals | SLP lid | Fram Filter | FTRA | ASP UnderDrive Pulley | Nitto 555R Dr | NOS 5177 Dry kit w/ 85 shot
Okay, seriously unless the Cobra has a pulley you're going to beat him with the 85 shot. If detonation is a problem put some Sunoco 100 in at the track as was said. Take no chances though. Make sure you go all-out and show no mercy. You can be damn sure he won't.

With what he has he should cut 12.4-12.5, my son as stock with STREET tires ran 12.6
My son has 03 conv (4000 with 150 # driver) pulley, exhaust,chip , nitto' @448 hp with only 900 miles runs 11.88 @ 117 mph,(when he can find hole to put the shifter in) drops me about 1-1 1/2 cars most time when he can shift
I would never think of promoting a Ford on a GM forum, but for the courious ( and brave at heart ) click below
